Problems solved by technology

[0004] Knocking out the kusA gene using traditional homologous recombination targeting technology is a labor-intensive task. Since the host has a low chance of HR without destroying kusA, it is difficult to carry out gene targeting; secondly, the kusA gene The deletion of the strain increases the probability of heterokaryon formation, which brings difficulty to the purification of the strain, and the HR effect of the heterokaryon is not good

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for quickly constructing an aspergillus niger recombinant strain and belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering. Aspergillus niger albA gene and aspergillus niger kuSA gene are simultaneously sheared through CRISPR-Cas 9, and an aspergillus niger kuSA mutant strain is rapidly screened out through spore phenotyping. Compared with a homologous recombination method for mutating the kuSA gene, the method obviously improves homozygote probability of the homologous recombination strain, and enables damage probability of the white mutant kuSA to reach 50% and probability of homozygote to reach 100%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for quickly constructing a recombinant strain of Aspergillus, belonging to the technical field of genetic engineering. Background technique [0002] Aspergillus niger is an important industrial production strain, which belongs to a kind of filamentous fungus. Due to its special physiological structure, it is difficult to edit its gene. Non-homologous recombination (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR) mechanisms coexist in Aspergillus niger to maintain its DNA damage repair. Among them, the probability of NHEJ is significantly higher than that of HR. During the process of homologous arm recombination, the transformation fragment is often inserted randomly in the form of NHEJ, which makes it very difficult to target the target gene to replace the high-expression site. Since the integration site is one of the important factors affecting the expression level of the recombinant gene during the expression of the recombi...
